In this episode, Emma Walton Hamilton defines exactly what read-aloudability is and how important it is in picture books (HINT: it can sway the submission process), while Katie Davis illustrates one impactful way to factor that secret sauce into your writing.
This is the first of a three-part series all about read-aloudability and how it can be your ticket to getting published. Stay tuned!
